Episode 606 Goblin Principality (5)
The Goblin Queen was really busy with her eyes closed.
After a nap, he wakes up and leads the goblins, consults with the people of the territory, decides the foundation and size of the village, and sets the appropriate quota to manage the goblins.
Is that all?
Goblins arenât the ones who dig and make a living.
As the population grew, it was also necessary to find food to feed them.
Although the village is prospering rapidly, it has not yet been able to build a facility that will allow all the goblins to rest.
Thatâs why it was her job to set up a temporary shelter and assign the goblins.
Even if it was simply food, clothing and shelter, if this was enough, in addition to that, I had to put effort into educating the goblins.
It really couldnât have been an extreme job.
The inside of a pretty old-fashioned office.
The Goblin Knights, who were given names, were sitting around a round table and discussing.
âBuilding a wall is good, but it doesnât solve the underlying problem this way.â
âI think so too. Reproduction must be limited.â
At the knightsâ words, the queen let out a pained sound.
âYou know. But if that happens, the aftermath will blow along with the explosive growth.â
As the growth rate was high, the work was arranged accordingly.
There are a lot of things that have been done, so if you set a limit at once, there will be a lot of problems.
So, I couldnât quit now.
dilemma.
In a situation where I couldnât even do this or that, it was literally to die for.
âWe are adjusting our food by hunting, but that is also the limit. According to the words of the people living in the territory, it is good to make a deal with the merchants.â
âDeal with merchants?â
The Goblin Queenâs long ears perked up.
Definitely a good way.
They were hunting numerous monsters in unexplored lands.
Among the dogs, the flesh was taken, but it was difficult to process the hides and bones due to the lack of skills to process them.
If it could be sold to merchants at a fair price, it would surely solve the food and financial problems as well.
Finding a breakthrough in an unexpected place, the Goblin Queen thumped the tabletop and stood up.
âFind the human merchant. I want to talk to myself.â
* * *
The guards wandered around looking for the Goblin Queen.
Since there were so many facilities, the goblins who were working got angry when I was snooping here and there.
âKeew! humans! This is not your place to play! If youâre going to get in the way, get out of the way!â
ââ¦.â
â..â
The receptionists were dumbfounded.
Itâs not enough that a goblin or something like that dares to glare at you, and itâs very strange to order it while pointing your finger at it.
Even if they looked like they were playing, the goblinsâ eyes were cold as if they were watching food bugs.
âIâm sorry.â
So-young, who apologized without even realizing it, got out of the way.
âjoy! Be careful next time!â
Looking at the goblin snorting like a human.
Heolyoung smiled terribly.
âHahaha. You are a goblin who wants to die.â
âstop. It is true that we are no help.â
âYou have to be careful with your mouth in everything.â
It seems that the goblinâs words bothered him quite a bit.
Heukyoung shook his head with his arms crossed.
ââ¦I need to find the Goblin Queen quickly.â
Now there was no other way.
The guards went to the makeshift gymnasium and plaza, but when the Goblin Queen was nowhere to be seen, they searched the area.
where did you disappear to?
There were goblins who said they saw her, but the really important queen was not there.
They had no choice but to ask the goblins around them.
âThe queen just went to the smithy.â
âThe Queen is a busy person. Go to the office.â
âKeyi profit. You were here just now. I donât know where he went.â
There was no place in town she hadnât been to for a day.
At this point, my respect grew rapidly.
The security guards, who were leaning against a wall and taking a break, shook their heads.
âWhat a goblin. It would be difficult to do this normally.â
âI didnât know that there were goblins with this much tenacity. It is definitely the queenâs lumber.â
The goblin queen was so incompetent that even the dark spirit, who was rarely praised, admired it.
If you track your whereabouts.
In the morning, they stopped at the blacksmithâs shop, and after that, they patrolled the walls they were just building to see if there were any problems.
Stop by the gymnasium to watch the goblins and see how much the population has increased in one day.
Since most things in the goblin society were still unsystematized, the queen had no choice but to run and figure it out.
Even when everyone else was eating lunch, she never stopped.
Befitting a position in charge of a race, the goblin queen was desperate.
When the guards started to see it, they couldnât help but like the goblin queen.
âBecause it can help the goblins.â
Although it would be better to hear from the Goblin Queen.
Isnât it impossible to make another job for her, who is already busy?
The dark spirit, struggling, finally loosened his arms.
âI will not go.â
âWhere are you going?â
When Soyoung asked, he answered with a serious face.
âActually, I was going to open a weaving shop after this job. Itâs about touching the fabric.â
Their fisheye was dumbfounded by the unexpected confession.
Are you making clothes for that body?
The security guards imagined a distracted dark young weaving cloth.
In a feminine way, she inserts her little finger.
The appearance of a dark young holding up the finished fabric and liking it like a child.
So-young freaked out and fell away from Heuk-young.
âdonât do it! I hate scary stories!â
He rubs his forearm with chicken skin.
Is that a story that will give you goosebumps?
The Dark Spirit, who died in his heart, said.
âAnyway, Iâll see if I can help them myself. There must be something you want to do too, right? Isnât it a good opportunity? Try to gain experience now.â
Leaving those words at the end, Heukyoung turned his back.
Eventually, the black spirit leaves.
Those left behind looked at each other.
âIs there anyone else to go?â It was a look.
This time, Hyolyeong walked out scratching the back of her head as if embarrassed.
âHa ha ha⦠Well, as Dark Spirit said, there is nothing wrong with gaining experience in advance.â
âWhat are you?â
ââ¦carpenter, carpenter.â
Surprisingly, it was a normal thing, so I was even more surprised.
I was curious about what Heeol-young, who was usually a jerk (?), would do.
Soyoung smiled and nodded.
âLearning to work under goblins is the first carpenter job in my life. It suits you well.â
Heeol-yeong also smiled at the joking words.
âIâll go.â
âokay.â
Even the blood left like this.
Hongyoung, who was watching the scene quietly, said quietly to the remaining guards.
âIf you wantâ¦you can go too. That is also the will of the Holy Son.â
Secretly, the security guards who couldnât leave because she was caught were relieved by those words.
Jeokyoung gave a short greeting.
âIf you want to find me, come to the butcherâs. You will be learning the butchering work there.â
âI think I will be looking for you for a while.â
Soyoung swallowed her saliva.
Hongyoung smiled lightly and waved his hand.
The receiving committees are scattering for the first time since they were formed, so why do they seem happy?
Recipients leave.
Finally, when only the two of them were left, So-yeong started talking.
âAre you not going?â
âI am the focal point of the receivers. Without me, there is no receiver.â
That might sound arrogant at first.
However, to her, Hongyoungâs words were infinitely kind and gentle.
Why donât they know that it means that she herself will remain as the focal point for that time when they are lost and looking for a place to return to?
âHongyoung.â
Sometimes I was grateful that she didnât leave, but there were times when I was saddened by the will to protect them even at the cost of myself.
It was just like that now.
Soyoung nodded as if nothing was wrong.
âbut. Itâs funny how you, our leader, learn your trade while being ignored by the goblins. Itâs a matter of the status of the receivers.â
âhuh.â
ââ¦then Iâll go too. Itâs been a long time since I gave up on my dream⦠well, I wanted to set up an information guild in the past.â
âIt suits you well.â
I donât know about the others, but this is how Hong Young cheers with all his might.
Her words of praise casually made me cry for some reason.
Itâs not like I canât see you forever, so why?
My heart was somehow empty, as if I were sending away a colleague I had been with for a long time.
Maybe itâs more because theyâve never been apart since childhood.
Will it look bad anyway?
Soyoung quickly turned her back and waved her hand.
âIf you want to see me, talk to me anytime. Iâll go find you before you.â
âhuh.â
ââ¦Iâll go.â
with horses.
Soyoungâs new model slowly disappeared as if it melted into thin air.
Finally, Hongyoung was left alone in an alleyway.
She murmured as she watched the sun slowly begin to set.
âHappiness⦠is it?â
For some reason, the smile doesnât disappear from his face.
Is this the feeling of happiness?
Something that filled my chest was shaking as if it were about to explode.
My heart is pounding.
I felt like I could do anything now.
Only then did she know.
what do you want to do
Hongyoungâs face also turned red under the soft scarlet sky.
She licked her small lips as she gazed endlessly at the road everyone had left.
âI⦠wanted to make someone happy.â
A small wish hidden in my heart that I couldnât even find myself.
sprouted now
